Well now that we have found god's hand we can start looking for the rest of him; that is if anyone has a few hundred thousand years to spare.

NASA Identifies The Hand of God
by Perry init even has what looks like blood flowing from a palm wound.
article.
world-renowned astrophysicist robert jastrow, founding director of nasas goddard institute for space studies, explains the fear of faith many of todays scientists experience.. there is a kind of religion in science, it is the religion of a person who believes there is order and harmony in the universe, and every effect must have its cause; [but] there is no first cause.

Perry Nicolaou....I have the maximum freedom that will ever be attained in this universe. And yet, while there is tremendous freedom in Christ, I am paradoxically also a slave.
Otherwise known as being a slave to self delusion.

The whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one. Satan is ruler of the world.
Jehovah's Witnesses have been peddling this ‘Biblical truth’ for well over a hundred years.

Don't be sad, connect with reality.

KateWild I cannot see a God that cares, hence I cannot believe that the creator actually punishes or rewards people, he just simply creates and is indifferent to our suffering.
You recently said that you were not an Atheist or a Theist. Your comment implies that you are moving towards being a Deist.
I so hope this doesn't confuse you further.

caliber Faith, hope and love are not nothing. They are emotions and longings that are a part of being human.
The existence of such emotions and longings do not automatically prove the existence of a spirit realm. Nor do they disprove the existence of a spirit realm or a spiritual ham sandwich.

"A ham sandwich is better than nothing...
Nothing is better than eternal happiness...
Therefore...
A ham sandwich is better than eternal happiness."This is the sort of false dichotomy that leads to convoluted thinking. It is dishonest and misleading.
Ham sandwiches exist. Eternal happiness is an unfulfilled promise; in other words nothing.
If I were you I would take the ham sandwich and waive the rest.

Do You Consider Yourself An "Apostate"?
by minimus ini don't.. i consider myself a truth teller.. the watchtower society appears to be more "apostate" than even "christendom"..

As it happens, I left the Watchtower Society because I didn’t want to be part of false religion.
Hold on, wasn’t the Watchtower Society founded for the same reason? That's why its founders apostatised.

I used to be spiritually minded but am now materialistic. It’s a better way to live in my opinion. We are material people living in a material world. We stay alive by eating organic material. Our entire reality is material. All the while we dwell on this planet we will seek comfort in material things. It is our nature to be materialistic. Who is to say what constitutes being ‘excessively’ concerned with material possessions?
The reason various religious leaders caution against being materialistic, is that it is a distraction from supporting their particular persuasion. They earn their living by directing people towards heaven, earthly activity is discouraged. They have cleverly retagged materialism as ‘greed’ and called it a deadly sin. Oh please!
